Tresure Trove of authentic Shaker accents & accessories

This book is a treasure trove of authentic Shaker style accents and accessories you can make for your home. It is in full-color with excellent step-by-step instructions, accompanied by photos, for each of the 20 projects. There are handy templates and a resource list for some of the more unusual materials in back.Most of the projects will require either basic sewing, woodworking or metalworking skills. Conveniently all of the tools and materials needed are listed at the beginning of each one. A few projects, such a woven hexagonal pattern basket and heart & hand pattern hooked rug require no special skills or equipment. Basic sewing as well as a sewing machine are required for projects such as a nine patch quilt, table runner with stenciled bird, cushion covers, white muslin pillow cases with simple square design, and both a hand towel and toilet bag with cross-stitch design. Basic woodworking or metalworking skills and power tools are used for a tin utensil rack, pie safe, neat looking tree of life pegboard, candle box, wall clock, tray table, towel rail, alphabet chalkboard, and a dining bench. With these excellent instructions and a little time and effort you will be able to craft these sophisticated high quality items that will become family heirlooms in the Shaker tradition.
